New York Jets Report Card: Week 8
Week 8: Miami Dolphins @ New York Jets Quarterback: D- Sanchez: 28/54, 283 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 fumble In case you didn’t already realize that Sanchez is not the answer, well, here’s more proof. Running Backs: C- Greene: 15/77/0, 2 receptions for 29 yards Hilliard: 3/15/0 If you take away the 1 breakaway… Read more
NY Jets Report Card Week 7
Week 7: New York Jets @ New England Patriots Quarterback: C- Mark Sanchez: 28/41, 328 yards, 1 TD, 1 INT, 1 fumble A difficult performance to evaluate. There was much to like about Sanchez’ performance: he made several big plays and by and large, he was quite accurate. The safety was not his fault. What… Read more
New York Jets Report Card: Week 6
New York Jets Report Card – Week 6: Colts @ Jets Quarterbacks: B- Sanchez: 11/18, 82 yards, 2 TD, 0 INT Sanchez can still improve his efficiency, but this is a step in the right direction. No turnovers is a positive sign. Sanchez was not plagued by tipped passes or miscommunication, as he has been… Read more
New York Jets Week 5 Report Card
Week 5: Houston Texans @ NY Jets Quarterbacks: D Sanchez: 14/31, 230 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT Sanchez look decent, at times. However, he made numerous mistakes – including missing the mark on a crucial pass to Cromartie and getting numerous passes batted down at the line. In the end, he posted yet another game… Read more
New York Jets Report Card: Week 4
New York Jets Report Card: Week 4 San Francisco 49ers @ New York Jets Quarterbacks: G Sanchez: 13/29, 103 yards, 1 INT, 1 fumble Tebow: 1/1, 9 yards That’s not a typo. True, I don’t have official clearance from the powers-that-be at Jet Nation to issue such non-existent grades. But I’ve always been a renegade… Read more
New York Jets Week 3 Report Card
Week 3: New York Jets @ Miami Dolphins Quarterback: D+ Sanchez: 21/45, 306 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT Sanchez’ receivers could certainly do him some favors. They could, for example, pay attention. Or run routes. Or not have hands made of bricks. That said, this is Mark’s 4th year and, as such, it’s time for… Read more
New York Jets Week 2 Report Card
New York Jets Week 2 Report Card: Jets @ Steelers Quarterbacks: F Sanchez: 10/27, 138, 1 TD Tebow: 1 rush , 22 yards Sanchez marched the Jets down the field for a touchdown on their first possession. When was the last time that happened? This was a different kind of “terrible game” for Mark, as… Read more
New York Jets Week 1 Report Card
Week 1: Buffalo Bills @ New York Jets 9/9/12 During the pre-season, we heard it all: the Jets have 2 starting quarterbacks and neither of them can throw the ball. One of those quarterbacks is a fullback. We heard that Mark Sanchez can’t lead this team, Tim Tebow can’t lead this team and, at times… Read more
In Defense of the Tebow Trade
I was as shocked as anyone to hear that the Jets were in the running for Tim Tebow. Although it was being reported, no part of me believed that they would actually pull the trigger. Now that it’s done, I’m equally surprised by the scrutiny that this trade has caused. The detractors include the entire… Read more
New York Jets Week 17 Report Card
New York Jets Report Card: Week 17 Jets @ Dolphins Quarterback: F Sanchez: 21/32, 207 yards, 2 TD, 3 INT Sanchez’ 3 interceptions all came on passes that barely left the line of scrimmage. There was a timid look on his face all day, as he checked down to running backs even when he wasn’t… Read more
New York Jets Week 16 Report Card
Week 16: Giants @ Jets Quarterback: D+ Mark Sanchez: 30/59, 258 yards, 1 TD, 2 INT, 1 TD (rushing). It was a very poor game for Sanchez, though he didn’t have much to work with here. The receivers and offensive line weren’t very friendly to him, and even the running backs at times (Greene dropped… Read more
New York Jets Report Card Week 15: Jets @ Eagles Quarterback: D+ Sanchez: 15/26, 150 yards, 2 TD, 2 INT, 1 fumble lost Brunell: 1/3, 27 yards Oh, it was bad. But it wasn’t quite as bad as it looks. See below. Running backs: C Greene: 18/73/0, 1 reception, 0 yards Tomlinson: 3/9/0, 4 receptions… Read more
